The purpose of this thread is to gather the community to explore a flavor and it's many uses.
We're not just looking for you to post recipes you have containing the flavor of the week, but looking for you to share your process as you develop a new juice using the flavor of the week.
This should help us all to better understand how certain flavors interact, and give us all a launching point to perhaps discovering new wonderful recipes. Please post new recipes created using this flavor as well as any and all tasting notes as main posts. Thought process is encouraged also.
This thread will NOT be in contest mode so the best flavors and reviews of those should move their way towards the top.
While I definitely encourage you to branch out with this flavor and use some more rare flavors, I would encourage everyone to keep it in mind that others will not be able to try your recipe and comment or offer assistance if they do not have the flavors you are using. I would also encourage you to use this week's flavor as the "main" flavor in your recipe although this is not required.
You BETTER sample and offer tasting notes on your recipe. Good luck to everyone!
This Week's Flavor is: PEACH
Unlike in the previous monthly contest thread, I am NOT limiting this to any specific flavor from any specific vendor. After all, our goal here is to come up with perhaps some unique uses of the weekly flavor or combinations others may not have thought of before. This should allow for maximum participation as well!

Fuckin' Inawera Peach, boys and girls.
After trying a few different peaches, INW has been the only one that didn't taste off to me. It's a darker Peach flavor, unlike FA White Peach. It tastes almost like the syrup in a can of peaches, but not as sickeningly sweet. Pairs perfectly with creams, as well as counterbalancing bright fruit mixes.
Here's a recipe I've been tweaking that uses it.
1.5% INW Peach
4% FA Catalan Cream
1% INW Shisha Vanilla
1.5% TFA Toasted Marshmallow
1.5% FA Meringue
The peach is the star of that recipe. It goes together so perfectly with Catalan Cream, it isn't even funny. Shisha Vanilla adds some sweet vanilla that goes really well with the light fluffiness of the Meringue. Toasted Marshmallow adds a hint of baked creaminess to the Catalan Cream.
I need to stop reading these FOTW posts. It's getting incredibly annoying to constantly be shopping for new flavorings.
I literally haven't even used my FA Peach & White Peach that I bought on BF yet.
But enough sulking. I have plans for peach + shisha rosemary. Is that crazy? I feel like that's crazy.
Hey we could work on that together. I have rosemary and a grip of peaches. Don't run off and get INW Peach until you've tried those FA peaches. 2:1 white peach:peach is pretty damn awesome. FLV Peach plays nicely with them too.
I think it will turn out well. Peach goes really well with floral and aromatic flavors, and rosemary would pair nicely.
I don't own INW Peach (yet). Is TFA Juicy Peach an acceptable sub, at say, 4%?
Nope! Juicy Peach is way too candy-like.
Have you tried FLV Peach yet? If so how do you think it compares to INW Peach?
I haven't yet. I'm pretty sure /u/skiddlzninja has, though.
It's lighter. INW has a bit more bite to it. Not quite as complex either(INW has a rind flavor, along with a good mix of flesh; like the sweet outer flesh and tart inner flesh of a peach.) FLV is still a really good peach, though, just sweeter than INW.
Have you tried HA Peach yet? Do it, I dare you! But be warned, it's a strong one, .5-1% as a main. I like it better than INA Peach, it's more of a fresh peach to me, you can almost taste the skin/fuzz.
I'll have to try that. I have a handful of other Hangsen flavors. Gooooood stuff.
I recently overdid it with MF white peach - one drop in a 5ml mix, and even though it blew my m-fing doors off, I actually really enjoyed the ride. I think I described it as having someone "stomping delicious peachy goodness into my sinuses."
It was delicious, but I haven't been back to try it at a sane level - the experience was a bit extreme, and I'm off peach for a bit. It's unfortunate, because one of my ADVs was a recipe I call "Turtle I" - TFA bavarian cream, TFA juicy peach and TFA marshmallow.
This flavor bugs the hell out of me!
It's so tasty. And goes so well with strawberry, apricot, dragonfruit, even pomegranate. But I quickly grow tired of it, so I add a bit of this or that, lemon, apple, meringue, VBIC, it all somehow works, for a bit, and then I grow tired of it.
Some days it's a flavor sensation of freshly picked juicy fruit, other days it tastes like soap. Same mix, same setup. I swear my palate is playing tricks on me!
In the end I get sick of the taste before I get to finish a recipe. I'll have to try out INW Peach with some of the suggestions in this thread, I'd really love to find my elusive peach ADV!
This one is for you /u/NotCharlesManson 😊
Raging Peach
Base
- Juicy Peach TFA - 4%
- Yellow Peach CAP - 2%
- White Peach FA - 1%
These three peaches make up the main note . you will taste TFA on the inhale and white peach on the exhale , the CAP acts as a median to both.
Supporting Flavors
- Marshmallow FA - 0.75% , Smooths out the sharp notes in the three.
- Catalan Cream FA - 0.5% , it blends really well with peach by adding a slight vanilla and a hint of spice .
- Brandy FA - 0.25% , oh boy this one is a secret, fucking bright the flavor and make it juicy.i
- Meringue FA - 0.25% , My lovely sweetener and complements Marshmallow.
I mix this @ 25PG/75VG . you don't want less than 70% VG as you will sacrifice the sweetness from it.
Enjoy you fuckers . Love you all

I called this on Peach Bizniz because i am very unoriginal.
1.75% FA White Peach
2.25% FA Mango
1.5% CAP Juicy Peach
1.5% CAP Strawberry
0.4% INW Cactus
I started trying to make a mango juice, and found that peach was the perfect compliment. I started with FA White peach but knew it needed to be a bit more rounded. I added in a little CAP Juicy Peach, and it really brings in the full peach flavour. It is mango on the inhale, and peach on the exhale. I added a bit of CAP Strawberry to sweeten the juice and round out the flavours. Finally, a bit of INW Cactus makes the juice really shine.
I would recommend steeping it for at least 4 days so that the perfume from the cactus mellows and the flavours blend. I mixed it at 75/25 vg/pg with 3mg nic and it is delicious. A little sweet for my ADV (I like the citrus), but an awesome juice for a tank every now and then.
This looks really good. I don't have some of these exact flavors, but I have some good subs for what I am missing and I have the irreplaceable ones (like white peach and cactus). I'm hitting this up tonight and reporting back. Thanks!
Okay so this one is a variation of /u/jungleismassiv3 Peach Bizniz.
Peach Shizniz
1.5% White Peach (FA)
0.5% Peach (FA)
0.5% Peach (FLV)
4% Sweet Mango (CAP)
1.5% Sweet Strawberry (CAP)
0.5% Cactus (INW)
I don't have CAP Juicy Peach, so I substituted my own peach combo using Flavour Art and Flavorah and made an educated guess about percentages. I also don't have FA Mango, but I have CAP Sweet Mango and I like it a lot so I used that and bumped up the % because FA is typically stronger than CAP. I am assuming that CAP Strawberry is CAP Sweet Strawberry, so I kept that as is. Cactus at .5% is my 'go to' for applications like this, so there we are.
Wow...if I am going to let this sit for 4 days, I better make more because after sitting for only 8 hours it smells like candy peach goodness and I am hooked on this sweet, fruity vape. Well done!
edit: I'm thinking that FA Lemon Sicily at .3% would give it a welcome citrus kick.
I'm totally adding some lemon to my mix tonight. Thanks for the suggestion.
I lurk here often but haven't actually tried to diy yet. I'd love a roasty spicey vanilla peach. I've experimented a little with mixing shisha to try and get that flavor I want but to no avail.
Try my peachykeen custard in my birthday recipe thread! Just search keyword birthday will find it. Could add a dash of toasted marshmallow for more toastiness.
I had saved your post when you made it for that recipe specifically! I'd love it if some chai, Ceylon cinnamon, or clove could fit in there too but that's putting it on the verge of too much flavor to vg/pg. I'll have to try it out when I can afford a diy setup!
Does Peach (FA) bring something irreplaceable to the party? Was thinking I'd just bump up the FLV, but if it's unique I'll I just get it and have 6 different peaches to work with.
Not sure if I'm supposed to post this or not, but does anyone have a fuzzy peach version of peach? That's my jam and it's hard to find one out there I like.
